For many years, he was a thresher in this neighbourhood, going five or six years ago to the Parry Sound district, where he carried on a sawmill business at Deer Lake.

Cosgrove) of Burlington; Gordon of Guelph; Ivy (Mrs. John Ruttan) of Parry Sound; Jean, Eileen, Verley and Calvin, at home; six grandchildren; and one sister, Mrs. James Currie.
